New Delhi: Skype for Android has received an update that allows you to multitask on your phone, even while being on a video call.

The new feature added on Skype Android app is picture-in-picture support which was earlier available on tablets for about a year. This means even if you are in the middle of a video call, you can head over to another app and continue with the conversation, video and all.

With this app you can also format text in your instant messages, and finally receive photos sent from iPhone Skype users. The update also includes the obligatory bug fixes that typically accompany a version bump.
